A brand new take on the original surf classic - BIRTH OF THE ENDLESS SUMMER is a new, full-length feature documentary that reveals the hidden story behind filmmaker Bruce Brown's The Endless Summer, would become the most influential surf movie of all time. Metz's train-jumping, steamship-hopping tour, in the vein of On the Road and The Motorcycle Diaries, led to his discovery of "the perfect wave" at Cape St. Francis, South Africa.
The award-winning doc feature captures the magic of adventure traveler and surf pioneer Dick Metz as he vagabonds the globe from 1958-1961. Metz's journey would not only inspire Brown to create one of the most watched and beloved films of all time, but also set events in motion that would forever change surfing and pop culture. Featuring three generations of surfing’s highest profile characters, from the 1950s right up to today, BIRTH OF THE ENDLESS SUMMER is the new chapter in one of documentary cinema's most iconic franchises.
